Incredibly cheap shot about people who have real problems, way to go.
maybe so, but it's mostly true.
how do you prove cowardice, is it cultural, responsibility? you say it as fact. One man's cowardice is another man's rationale.
Uh.....Sorry ,but you are mostly wrong.As a soldier you may have been trained to think this way,but trust me weakness is not the reason.
Show me the evidence, it's opinion but you had stated it as if it was a fact. If you had said, in my opinion i believe it to be mostly true, fair enough, but in my opinion, that would still be an incorrect belief.:wink:
Hang in there my friend. Time doesn't really heal wounds, but it'll help.

You don't know shit. That's ok, it's not your fault -- ignorance has a cure. It's called experience.
damn, this topic is really unexpected since my friends 22 year old sister just committed suicide this week. Very Sad...beautiful young person and I wished someone was there for her during these trying times. This makes me love my kids more and be a better more supportive parent to give them positive guidance throughout their growing years.
Guess I don't, thanks for enlightening me.
I have a cousin who killed himself. His mother has been walking around like a zombie for thirty years. She was once a vibrant and happy person. There have been a few times in my own life where I thought suicide might be a solution to what I was going through and, in one particularly dark time, the only thing that kept me from it was the thought of what my cousin's suicide did to his mother.
There's no guarantee that things will get better. For more people than we would like to admit, life keeps piling on the stress, the heartache, the pain, the loneliness, the disappointment to a point where it becomes unbearable. I don't think it's a cowardice at all, I think it's an exhaustion. Like a boxer who's been pummeled so much that he just can't pull himself up off the mat anymore, accepting defeat. Some of us can simply go more rounds than others, and we should count our blessings.
